Knut identified a wrong results regression in 10.5.2.0, DERBY-4331. I
normally would not want to make a release with a known wrong results
regression, but am not quite sure what to do with 10.5.2.0. The vote
closed and passed. The release has been posted to the website, but no
announcement has been made. Should we continue with the release or
try to abort and make another release candidate? If we do abort, I
won't be able to be release manager as I am going out on vacation for
a few weeks on August 15.
Another issue is that DERBY-3926 which introduced the regression was
not listed in the release notes because it was still open. One
possible option is to add a release note to that issue now and
manually update the release notes on the website (not in the
distribution) to include DERBY-3926 and warn about DERBY-4331. Then
start working on another 10.5 release to be released fairly soon (a
couple months).
I am concerned about declaring victory on DERBY-3926. It seems that the
ordering problem may simply have been shifted from one family of queries
to another.
